-Did you find something? - Mr. Lombard asks the capitain

-Nothing until now, Mr. Lombard, but the officers have been revising the houses nearby where your daughter was last seen. - Dean nods, closing his eyes for a moment

-You need to find my daughter, capitain, she the only one I've got left. - He says faking sadness

-I give you my word, Mr. Lombard. Your daughter will come back to you. - Dean nods and the capitain leaves, leaving him alone

-What I need to do to save my business. - He tells himself, wiping the fake tears off his eyes - Next time I'll put a tracker on you to know where you are. - He says angrily

He stand up from his place to walk towards the bookshelf. He moves a few books aside, letting him see a safe. He puts the password and the bookshelf goes backwards immediately. Dean closes the secret door before walking towards some controlls to turn on the lights.

-Hi, darling. - He says after turning on the lights, iluminating his wife

She finds herself in a frozen capsul. Dean revises her vital signs until he stands beside her, showing her face.

-Our daughter still doesn't appear. Jerome's the perfect man for her but she doesn't understand, she'll be happy with him like you and I were once. - He says smiling

He puts his hand on the capsul glass.

-Darling, you'll come back to me when I find a way to not have that strange illness that makes you very... cold and different with me.

Juliette's mother got the same gift as her thanks to her father. Juliette's grandfather was an ambicious man that wanted to be more powerful than any person in the world and experimented with his daughter until transforming her into a metahuman. Juliette got that gift thanks to her grandfather's experiment but her father didn't know. Mr. Lombard, after realising that his wife had such gift, decided to fake her death and keep her frozen until discovering how to take away that strange "illlness".

-I assure you, my love, that I'll find a way to take away that curse. You'll be normal, darling. I just need some time. - Dean whispers looking at his wife

After admiring his wife for a few seconds, he stands up from where he was seating and approaches the controls to turn off the lights before exiting the small, hidden room to return to his office.

Jolie opens her eyes suddenly, looking at the capsul that keeps her frozen. She looks at her hands which are slightly frozen but she doesn't feel any pain.

-Juliette. - She whispers remembering her daughter - Dean! Dean, get me out of here!

Mr. Lombard stop walking and turns around to look at his wife who finds herself awake.
